Where is Placencia Village Belize?

Much of our advertising makes a reference to our premier location in “Barefoot Perfect” Placencia. Why is this being emphasized so much? Where is Placencia Peninsula and Placencia Village?

Reason No. 1

Placencia is the name of a 16 mile long Peninsula in southern Belize, in the Stann Creek District, at the end of which lies the Village of Placencia. While that is easy to visualize perhaps, what is most confusing for first time travelers to the area is that every resort, hotel and accommodation along that 16 mile stretch of beautiful Belizean earth lists its location as in Placencia. And here is where the confusion comes . . .

Reason No. 2

What we have heard many times from our visitors and others who we meet in the Village, is that their intent and expectation was that they would be near to or in the Village with their accommodations. Then, they could explore it at their leisure, enjoy it’s local culture and freindly locals, partake of the many restaurants, street vendors, gift shops and entertainment that it provides as a backdrop to the awesome Belize adventure vacations they came to Belize to enjoy.

So, it is important for us to note and illustrate just where Chabil Mar is located on the Placencia Peninsula for those guests who do want the Village experience at their fingertips, leisurely, without the additional time and expense that being as little as two miles from the Village would require. As they saying goes, “

Like most ideal destinations, location is paramount to a truly unique experience!

Chabil Mar Belize Resort is a barefoot luxury resort and is the closest full service resort to the Village of Placencia.

Reason No. 3
